    You'll also want a method to change the order of the parents (since this
    has an effect on the ranked_parents and on which verb will be called if
    multiple ancestors in different inheritance paths define the same verb.)

    You don't want to use delete_parent and add_parent because they might
    result in properties being removed from the object in question
    temporarily and information being lost.
